It's important to focus on a balanced diet rich in proteins, healthy fats, and carbohydrates. Regular meals and snacks can help, along with strength training exercises to build muscle. Please consult a dietitian for a personalized plan and a doctor to rule out any underlying health issues.

Doctor mai mote nahi ho paa rahe weight 40 kg hai kya Karu ki jaldi mote ho jao
Female | 21
You might notice things like feeling drained, weak muscles, and a lack of hunger. This could happen for many reasons like not eating enough grub, having a super-fast metabolism, or even a health issue. To gain weight the right way, try loading up on more balanced meals packed with nutrients. Snack smart between meals too. And don't forget to move your body with some light exercise - it'll help build muscle.

My mother is suffering from overweight. Can she have a liposuction therapy as she is in her early 50's.
Female | 49
Liposuction or literally ‘sucking out fat’ is a suboptimal therapy for OBESE patients who desire weight loss. Liposuction can be considered as a treatment option for body sculpting, or slightly overweight patients who need to shape their abdomen in a particular manner. However, if one is obese, liposuction will cause a disproportionate loss of fat over the tummy, and leave space for fat re-accumulation in the future.
There are many weight loss options for a proportionate weight loss, eg. diet, exercise, or medications.
The healthier or ‘more natural’ way to lose weight in obese patients (with a BMI of more than 30 kg/m2) is bariatric or metabolic surgery, wherein the stomach is re-sized or bypassed using keyhole surgery. This surgery causes proportionate loss of fat all over the body up to 80% of the excess body weight, over a period of 1-1.5 years. This surgery is a safe and effective option if done by a certified surgeon at a high-volume center.

It's natural to feel concerned about your weight, but remember that everyone's body is unique. It's important to focus on your health rather than comparing yourself to others. Visit a nutritionist or a dietitian who can guide you on a healthy diet and lifestyle.

I’m looking to buying a mounjaro weight loss pen as I’m struggling to lose weight I weight 17st and I’m 5f 3in tall I’m believed that I can order this online by a pharmacy but I would like to know how safe this is before I order
Female | 36
Weight loss might be tricky sometimes, and you should be careful about the online products that promise a quick fix. Sudden weight gain is usually a result of poor eating habits or can also be caused by some medical conditions. A balanced diet and exercise are the two best things that can improve one's health and reduce the possibility of getting overweight. If you have any worries, it would be best to see a doctor to get a treatment that suits you.

Side effects of bariartic surgery
Female | 47
Bariatric surgery can have both positive effects on health and potential side effects. The specific side effects can vary depending on the type of bariatric surgery performed, but here are some common ones:
Surgical risks: It includes infection, bleeding, blood clots, and adverse reactions to anesthesia.
Nutritional deficiencies:It impacts nutrient absorption and lead to deficiencies of iron, vitamin B12, calcium, and vitamin D. These deficiencies may require lifelong supplementation and close monitoring.
Dumping syndrome: Can occur after gastric bypass surgery, where food moves too quickly from the stomach to the small intestine. You may experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, and rapid heart rate after meals.
Gallstones: Rapid weight loss after bariatric surgery can increase the risk of developing gallstones.
Changes in bowel habits: Some individuals may experience changes in bowel movements like diarrhea or constipation, after bariatric surgery.
Hair loss: Temporary hair loss or thinning may occur due to nutritional deficiencies or rapid weight loss. This is usually temporary and can be managed with proper nutrition.
Psychological and emotional changes: Bariatric surgery can have a significant impact on body image, self-esteem, and emotional well-being. Some may experience depression, anxiety, or body image issues post-surgery.

Which vitamin is best for gaining weight
Male | 18
Gaining weight can be supported by maintaining adequate vitamin D levels. If your body is low in vitamin D, it may struggle to gain weight. Signs of deficiency include tiredness and frequent illness. To boost your vitamin D, consume fatty fish, and fortified cereals, and get daily sunlight exposure. Keeping your vitamin D levels up is essential for healthy weight gain.

Male | 73
On the scheduled date, the increase in weight comes from the daily intake of food and lifestyle habits. Hair loss can be problematic, especially when combined with excessive exercise. It is important to follow the guidance of an instructor and consult your doctor to stay safe. If you're concerned about your weight, it's advisable to discuss it with your doctor.

I gained weight in last few months and I also have swelling on my body .
Female | 21
Having too much salt, not being active enough, and having a health condition are among the many things that can cause these symptoms. To solve this problem, you should eat foods with less salt content, move around more often, and drink a lot of water. If the swelling persists then it is necessary to see a doctor immediately.

The report indicates that the detailed fetal evaluation was difficult due to poor penetration of sound waves caused by a thick maternal abdomen. It is important to consult a maternal-fetal medicine specialist (MFM) or your gynecologist to discuss the results and determine if further evaluation is needed.

My body is gaining day by day instead of eating very healthy food and doing some workout
Female | 19
Hey there! Do you struggle gaining weight despite healthy eating and exercising? It's okay; sometimes metabolism slows down. Your body may not burn calories quickly. Hormonal imbalances or stress could cause it too. Make sure to get enough sleep. Drink plenty of water. Manage stress levels well. Consider consulting a dietician or trainer for personalized tips.

I don't gaining weight ( really tired of myself) and I'm a footballer too...
Male | 20
If you feel tired and don’t see any increase on the scale, it could be that you’re not eating enough to fuel your body. You should eat more calories than the average person because of how much running around you do on the field. Make sure to have a lot of carbs, protein, and healthy fats in each meal so you get all the nutrients necessary for good performance. Consider creating a menu with a nutritionist that supports your energy needs.

Many people worry about their body weight. One issue is not getting periods each month. This is not normal for girls and women. It means something might not be working right in the body. The best move is to see a doctor or nurse. They can find out the cause and give you the right care. With good treatment, your periods may start again. Then your weight may be reduced to a healthy level in a safe way.
